Book Synopsis A Wind-tunnel Test Technique for Measuring the Dynamic Rotary Stability Derivatives Including the Cross Derivatives at High Mach Numbers by : Benjamin H. Beam
Download or read book A Wind-tunnel Test Technique for Measuring the Dynamic Rotary Stability Derivatives Including the Cross Derivatives at High Mach Numbers written by Benjamin H. Beam. This book was released on 1955. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A method is described for measuring the dynamic stability derivatives of a model airplane in a wind tunnel. The characteristics features of this system are that single-degree-of-freedom oscillations were used to obtain combinations of rolling, yawing, and pitching motions; that the oscillations were excited and controlled by velocity feedback which permitted operation under conditions unfavorable for more conventional types of oscillatory testing; and that data processing was greatly simplified by using analog computer elements in the strain-gage circuitry.
